Heading in on December 27th, having our 10 year vow renewal on the 29th, and staying through Jan. 3rd. This is also our first time at Couples and Negril. We have been to Ocho Rios twice (once for our honeymoon and once for our 5 year anniversary). Really looking forward to it!

We will be there 12/31- 1/6! Congrats on all the weddings.. We are previous couples guests but first time at swept away and negril! There are lots of advatages of being repeat guests with romance rewards. hope to meet up with some of ya guys! We met some really great friends while at tower isle last year and keep in touch with some..

Colby and Heather will be there again to ring in the new year! December 25-January 1. For the newbies, Jamaican's know how to throw a serious party, best NYE anywhere!!! This will be our 10th trip to Jamaica and our 4th NYE at Swept Away. You are in for a real treat.

Driverlady, this will be our 16th visit to csa. Have spent many Xmas holidays there, but never NYE. Soooo what is in store for us? Also, what do most people wear for the evening of the 31st (which is also my birthday!!)? It's always good to change things up when coming home for another visit.

We'll be there too!

Dave and I well be there Dec 20th - Jan 6th. This is our 10th visit to CSA but the first time we've been there at New Years. Can't wait! We have wanted to be at CSA for New Years for a long time but couldn't because we usually travel with family at that time.

I was reading a post on Trip Advisor about people decorating their patios (verandas) with lights over the holidays. Sounds like a nice idea. I'm thinking about bringing a string of small lights and an extension cord for our room. From what was said on TA you can use duct tape to hang them. What do you think?

We will be there from Dec 27th-jan 3rd (give or take a few days). This seems like the thread to watch since everyone here will be there when we are there!! This is our first time at couples (we dont travel much) but we wanted to treat oursleves for our honeymoon.

Karon,
Lots of people decorate their patios/verandahs with ornaments/trees/lights during the holidays. We normally bring a set of lights but we use the solar powered ones. Tape and/or light clips can damage the wood on the railings. We use removeable velcro straps or just drape it arround the railing. You will really enjoy the decorations that the staff puts up. The area by the Gazebo is our favorite. We normally have a private dinner at the Gazebo before we leave and it looks like they decorated the whole area just for us.
